This guy never stops!

Well! Looky looky!! Mom has made another pick!
Game 11: Constant Gardener (11) vs Serenity (54)


Winner: Constant Gardener (11)

Sorry Terry, Serenity (54) just did not make the cut.

Mom says,
"the constant gardener score 4

A good movie bringing africa's problem to the screen (not that it has not been done before). the acting is good I liked it and loved the music/"


and,
"serenity score 2

Another unrest in the galaxy. Acting not too good.
I did not like it.

Which movie would I view for a second time?
Without a doubt The Constant Gardner "


Jan hangs on to the lead. Terry now hates Mom.



I don't know Terry, you might have been robbed!!

Movie's up for disqualification.
The following movies might not be release by the time Mom has not finished watching the rest of the movies. If this is so, then they will be disqualified. Damn shame. Yes, this is a change in the original rules that stated that we would wait until the end of the year for all movies to come out, but now that just seems silly. We would have to wait months before we could disqualify them.
Power of Nightmares (60)
Darwin's Nightmare (56)

If those movies are disqualified, these movies will progress to round two automatically. Mom will watch them and rank them against whatever won previously. Sorry, them's the breaks.

Jan and PCH duke it out!

1 point game! Etherpimp's pick: King Kong. Game 24: The Intruder (59) vs King Kong (6)

Winner: King Kong (6)


Mom says,
"The intruder score 3

I had a hard time with the movie. It was ever so slow. It went on and on before someone would say a word. I had a hard time putting it all together. the scenery/background and dogs are beautiful. I did not really like it."


and,
"King Kong (2005) score4
what can I say. King Kong from the woods to newyork it was a little too long. three hours
of the king a bit much, but then I am not 11, I know kids must love it."

Which would I view again. I HAVE TO PICK KING KONG>

Game 9: Mrs Henderson Presents (62) vs Capote (3)

Note. Lot's of info on the rest of the movies Mom will be watching at the end of the post. Now we continue with our regularly scheduled blog.

Hey hey hey!!! Mom has made another pick.

Game 9: Mrs Henderson Presents (62) vs Capote (3)

Winner for 1 point: Capote (3)
PCH picked Capote to go all the way, so she has to be happy. Funny, I thought she would have picked Mrs Henderson Presents.

Mom says,
"mrs. henderson score. 5

A great movie. Judy Dench plays mrs. henderson and does a fantastic job. Mrs. henderson buys an old mill and makes it into a theatre. All this at the age of 71. Gotta love it. There is hope for me."


and...
"Capote score. 5

A great movie of a murder that I remember. I remember too your dad buying the book IN Cold Blood . The book is fantastic. A must read.
my choice of best/second reviewing will be
CAPOTE."


Not many of you were fooled by this pick. Well, except for Terry. Sometimes I wonder what Terry was thinking when he made his picks! (Just kidding Terry). I know Todd hates it that Greg is beating him. Sara is beating up on Ben. You get him girl!! Um, I mean, GRRRRRRRRRRRRL!!!!!


See, when you are incredibly creepy,
you score with the hot chicks!
Good job Tru!
